Consumer Description

Coming from a 2017 Tesla Model S and a 2018 Tesla Model 3 to a 2022 Model Y the experience has been jarring. Tesla's driver assistance system, termed "Autopilot" has become almost unusable due to multiple, frequent, incidences of phantom-braking: 1. On a two-way road, when there are trucks in the oncoming lane, my 2022 Tesla Model Y Vision-only (Tesla removed radar) the car will slam its brakes 2. On a divided, limited-access highway, my 2022 Tesla Model Y will randomly slam its brakes. There are all safety issues because it can brake without any warning or logical indication why it should be braking, and cars behind me can very easily crash into me. Tesla did NOT have this issue, or at least not this prevalent, with my 2017 Model S and 2018 Model 3 that included both radar and vision for their driver assistance system.
